Default TCS Re-learn?

I have an 04' Accord Sedan with the 3.0 vTech engine.

I had my right ball joint go out, so a mechanic replaced it and the CV joint to fix the wheel.

In the process, my right wheel speed sensor got damaged so it was also replaced.

The ABS started working immediately after the speed sensor got fixed, but the TCS light is still on.

Specifically, when I first turn on the car, just the ! triangle relating to the TCS is on, and then after I start moving (like 30-60 seconds after) the "TCS" indication also comes on.

The mechanic said that because the wheel speed sensor got replaced, the TCS needs to "relearn" and those indications should disappear after 24 hours-ish.

I just got the speed sensor changed today - but I'm a bit suspect at what the mechanic told me.

Is there really a "relearn" involved for the TCS system?

I found a "TCS Pressure Sensor Neutral Position Memorization" procedure in the shop manual. It requires the Honda HDS system to perform as per the shop manual.

good luck

Where can I get the service manual online? I'm out of town and I got this procedure done out of town, but I'm leaving tomorrow so I may have to do it myself...

Service manual is available for download from automanualsource.com for $22. There may be free sources, but I'm not familiar w/ them.

good luck
